It’s been a Card day’s night, We’ve been working on a jog
15 GoodGymers made their way 7.2km to help the Action on hearing loss, parks and friends of parks, and Odd Down community cafe group in Bath.
- Tuesday, 12th of December 2017
- Led by Bath runner
Thankfully a little less chilly for 15 runners at Goodgym Bath for a 8k run up to Odd Down community cafe to help Ali write the Christmas cards ready for a Community Christmas lunch she provides for the elderly.
A warm up and headcount finding out everyone’s favourite CHEESE was in order before we took to THE HILL.
Snow Joke jogging up that hill
SUPERMAN SAM took the lead tonight and damn fine job he did getting everyone nice and warm with some high knee skips and walking lunges in the subway before the ascent to the summit.
Mother Mary was awaiting us at the manger
O.k so it was Goodgym Mary but she is a mother after all and she was clever enough to avoid joining us for the hill, shes a smart cookie.
Ali had a whole lotta Christmas Cards for the group to write for the elderly residents, in fact 66 to be precise so we formed orderly groups to see how fast we could be on the task
Enveloping the Christmas spirit
Writing and putting into the envelopes ready for the big day, it took us just 20 minutes but would have taken one person hours. we had chance to discuss the songs for next weeks singing with sign at action on hearing loss.
A leisurely jog back down Bloomfield taking in the views of Bath and some light sleety rain.
Don't Forget!
